Bees or Golden homers - who ya got?

A win by either team makes our upcoming matchup more intriguing especially with the E$ECSPIN train and "game day" and all....
A ND win? We get gameday? A GT win? Gameday??
How y'all see this playing out??
Go Tigers!!!

GT in a game similar to the Orange Bowl. Blowout in the 4th qtr.

If Alabama UGA is the same weekend as the ND game, I don't see esucsecpn gameday coming to Clemson.

Good point. However GD is at Alabama this week so that might lead them away from them again. ND is such a big national draw. I think we get one of the ND or GT games.

I don't forsee this happening, but....
If by some chance USUCK beats UGAY AND GT beats ND and remains undefeated....
Oct 10th could get real interesting for the talking heads/$EC love ##### at E$ECPN....
Just sayin'

The esucsecpn spin machine has already pointed out that a GT win over ND is not as good as it would have been.

I think GT wins by 14 or more. ND always struggles with Navy, and GT is similar with much better athletes.
That said, if ND pulls it off, I think we get gameday for them and possibly again for FSU if we are both still undefeated. The only real competition is Bama/UGA on Oct 3rd, and if they go there, they would be covering Bama 3 out of the first 5 weeks... Possible, but I really hope that doesn't happen.

We pretty much know how GT will perform.

The offense is simple and the key players are good at doing their jobs.
ND just promoted a second string QB to starter because the starter broke his ankle. The back did really well when he came in to finish up the business left after the ankle injury but starting a game is a different situation. I don't think ND could beat GT with either of the three QBs.
ND isn't spectacular on defense so without a lot of luck and a good practice squad to mimic the triple option they get a loss on their record.
GT will probably jump us in the ranking but it will make for a good ole fashioned whuppin when they come to visit Death Valley.

ND as a home dog is hard to pick against. They see the option from Navy every year, but they suck at defending it. However, their OL is really good and should push GT around. If they stick with running the ball, they could suck the clock dry.
I think ND athletes ought to be better.
Not sure which way to go on this one.

ND has had trouble with Navy recently, and their defense has been average to below average over the last few years. Looks like they've been better against the run than the pass this year, though. And while ND has a converted WR playing RB this year, they've just pounded it on the ground against Texas and a pretty good defense in UVa. They can also go over the top with Fuller.
I think the game will depend on whether GT can get some pressure on Prosise and make ND into a one-dimensional running team. If ND turns it over, GT's offense will make it very difficult for ND to win. However, if ND slows GT down and doesn't turn the ball over, I can see ND winning pretty easily.

I got the bees by a couple tds...with a backup he's gonna have to make every snap count against a team that will have long time consuming drives thag likely end in scores ..heck uva moved it on nd ..gt will win simply bc the nd off will not have enough chances to hide the few mistakes they make....I think gt wins something like 24 10

You're aware that ND lost Zaire last week for the season - right? Zaire was the key to ND winning a lot of games as he moves the chains whenever needed. He's NOT there - so ND has very little chance of winning games this year. They should not even sniff the Top 25 at this point IMO. GT wins by 30+ easily.
Additionally, ND let Golden slip away to FSU, and that single player would have saved their season. If you're a betting man - bet against ND every week.

Close one but I got ND...
I think the difference is ND front 7 on D, their built to stop the run.
